Very Queer Law.

If decision just made by the Supreme Court of Connecticut is sound law, real estate on the banks of rivers with tendency to change the course of their channels is a dangerous investment for capital. The court holds that rivers are nat ural boundaries, and when they al- ter their course their functions as boundaries are not affected by their former relation to lands. That no mistake may be made Interpreting the meaning of the court, the deci- sion gives a forcible illustration of possible result from the wayward- ness of the river. "If," the deci- sion says, "after washing away the intervening lot, it should encroach upon the remoter lots, and should then begin to change it's movement in the other direction, gradually re- storing what it had taken from the
 intervening lot, the whole, by law of secretion, would belong to the
 remoter, but now approximate, lot" Under this statement of the law an owner on the river front is not only liable to see his property gradually disappear under his own eyes, but if it reappears subsequent

ON FRIDAY, October 21st, Gene ral Pryor presented to the Supreme Court of the United States a peti- ton for writ of error in the cases of the Chicago condemned anarch- ists. Only two points were raised in the petition to show Federal jur- isdiction and as ground for the granting of the writ.
 First, Because the statutes of Hi nois regulating the empanelling of juries, provided that a jury for the trial of criminal case might be made up in part at least of jurors, who had formed or expressed an opinion as to the guilt or innocence of the accused, and that it is not a ground of challenge that a juror has read newspaper accounts of the crime, or has formed an opinion or impression based upon rumor (about the truth of which he has expressed no opinion), provided he states under oath that he can deliver an impartial verdict ill ac- cordance with law and evidence.
 Second, That the police authori- ties had broken into private desks of the accused and taken their pri- vate letters and papers without due process of law, and by the intro duction of these documents in evi- dence, the prisoners had been made virtually to testify against them selves. Also, some of the prison CTS were on the stand, and despite the protests of their counsel, were compelled to submit to an unre-

Removal to the Verde.

It has been learned from good authority that the military author ities at Whil pie have been tele- graphed to hold themselves in read mess to move the Apache-Mohaves and Tonto-Apaches, to the number of about 1,20O, from the San Car los reservation to the Fort Verde military reservation. This is a matter of general discussion on the streets, and it is denounced as an outrage to remove these cutthroats into the midst of a settled com munity like that of the Verde val ley. The settlers of the valley are almost to a man, opposed to the removal and settling of this gang of cutthroats in their midst. The only ones in favor of it are about a half dozen ranchers in the imme- diate vicinity of the Fort, who seem to think they can dispose of their surplus produce to the Government, for the support of the soldiers at Camp Verde, knowing that an ad- ditional force will have to be main tained there, in the event of the re- moval of the Indians. It will now be in order for the settlers to arm themselves, and make a frightful example of the very first of these red demons found running at large off the reservation.-Prescott Jour- nal-Miner.

THE land department at Wash ington has given notice that mil lions of acres of rail: oad indem- nity lands will be op'n to settle ment by home-steaders and pre- eEptors within few months. These lands are among the best lands ever offered west of the Mississippi river and in the Gulf States. Such an opportunity for the young people of this nation to acquire real estate for the mere taking will never occur again, as the public lands will by another year be practically exhaust ed. Thereafter the struggle for homes and land will resemble Flu rope. All who are about to start for the West or to locate on South ern railroad lands will find Copp's Settlers Guide of special service published by Henry N. Copp, Wash ington, D. C.; price, .25 cents.
 It tells about the homestead, pre- emption, timber culture, and other land laws how to decipher survey ed township, section, and quarter section corners how long residence must be continued; what settle ment and improvements must be shown; how and on what grounds contests against abandoned and H. legal entries can be commenced ; location of government land offices and names of land officers, and it will doubtless save many settlers from the loss of their land and i'm provements, as designing people of ten mislead uniformed settlers as to the requirements of the settle ment laws.

Generalization of the Army.

ATLANTA, October 14.-The Sal vation Army which has been thriv- ing in Georgia for year past, has met with a series ot disasters dur ing the past month which has broken it up. The Rome encamp- ment was broken up by the arrest of the leader. Henry Johnson, for attempting assault on Nora McGin- his, a child of eight years. The army in Griffin was rotten-cgged and one of the city aldermen, MT. George, is now under bonds for his activity in hurling the missiles. In Columbus and other places the leading female officers married and so scandalized the other soldiers that they would not parade any more. In Augusta three women deserted husbands and children, causing such indignation that the barracks are now empty. In this city, Nat Anderson, the leading singer, has deserted and accuses his comrades of various unmen- tionable crimes. Four families have been broken up here by the army.
 Score another one for Republi- can institutions, as the above clinches the argument that heaven itself is unsafe in the presence of a standing army. Give us salvation in crude chunks and gobs, if you desire, but in that cause armies are as useless as the curl in a pigs tail for in the celestial ecoEomy there is no appropriation for bounty jumpers, no pension bureaus, and no retired lists for the veterans of the camp-meeting brigade.

J. k. SMITH, an express messen- ger of Wells, Fargo & Co.,, on the night of October 14th, shot and killed two robbers who stopped a train on the Galveston, Harrisburg & San Antonio railroad and blew cp2n the express car with a dyna- mite cartridge. The plucky mes- senger will be presented with a gold medal by the citizens of El Paso, Texas, besides receiving a reward of $4,000 from the Southern Paci- fic road. This is the most effica- cious remedy for train wrecking and robbery, and Smith can wear the eagle feathers for being the first man with sufficient nerve and pres ence of mind to apply it. A few more such lessons and the bandits of the rail and their high-handed practices will be classed among the lost arts.

There are now under cultivation in the Salt River Valley and its inn mediate vicinity more than 50,000 acres, and the area is being en- larged with astonishing rapidity. So easy of cultivation is most of the land in this valley that it is no uncommon thing for it to be clear ed of the little brush that it bears, and with nothing but the ordinary cultivator run once over 1t, and sowed to some kind of grass, and in three or four months ripen a good crop without eyer having been touched with a blow. The charac- ter of the soil is such and is so ex- actly alike from the surface to the depth of several feet, that cuttings from rasin grapes are in many eases put into the ground and make a rapid growth without any prepara- tion but a single furrow in which to put them.
